93 entries! This is my first time in this so I don't know how it compares to previous ones, but it sure sounds like a lot.
Best of luck to everyone, it was sure cool to see all these nice ships! |

| Sure If it wanted to keep it secret I wouldn't have posted it on the internet. And it's not like I own any IP on that... If you use beams a bit broader, you might be able to use battery bits both pointing up and down for an even bigger ship yard look. I was thinking about it at the time, but only ha... |

| It wasn't that difficult. Step one: take the shuricat bit from the Falcon kit. Step two: Add two support beams from any of the cities of death building kits Step three: add some chaos batteries to the beams. Use some thin spears or antenna bits to add slide railsin between them along the beams Step ... |

| Galactic Fringe, I have seen some of those big gun boats you mention on ebay, though I've never been able to actually win any of them. I always felt that they look like that old lego kit with the culverin cannon turret on the rowing boat I usually just use them as oversized representations of what t... |

| Well, then enjoy: The Ship-Gobbler! A strike cruiser conversion with a massive prow launchbay. While I like the model, it's probably a bit too comical in proportion for most people. (It reminds me of the bond movie where a modified super tanker gobbels up submarines, can't remember the title though)... |

| Close on the spelling, but I don't mind Yep, I had a pair of the Revell 'Miniships' line of Bismark and Tirpitz that I used for those big turrets. I believe they were 1:1200 scale but I don't have the boxes anymore so I'm not sure. I think those specific kits are OOP now (haven't been able to ever c... |

| And this is a squadron of Escorts I'm not sure of yet as to what class they are. I made them to be cobras but they turned out to be very very large for the smallest escort around. |
